Don't get me
wrong- I love my folks...I think I just love them more from farther away! I've lived on my own for pretty much the last 5 years and I've gotten used to having my own space, doing my own thing, without anyone asking "Where are you going? Whatcha doing? Do you want anything to eat? Drink? Are you tired? Are you sick?" I have to admit though, the last 4 months haven't been that bad! My parents have been so kind in letting me move back home (rent free!), they have fed me, and been really supportive of my decision to go traveling.But in a way, I feel like I have let them down. They were always my number one fans when I was on the radio, listening to me online and then calling me afterward to review my whole show with me. They tol
d all their friends that I was a radio DJ and proudly wore their "Country 93.3" t-shirts wherever they went. What are they going to brag about now? That their 25 year old daughter is living at home with no job, and is about to go waste her money away while traveling the world? And not only that, but I feel like I have let myself down as well. For the past few years I was on such a determined path: get my experience in radio and work my way up to the biggest and best job I could get! As you can see, that's not happening anymore. Is this just a detour I'm on, or have I changed my route entirely? I'm not sure of the answer to that...As of right now, I do hope to get back into radio, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens! And I know deep down that my parents will be proud of me no matter what I end up doing, as long as I'm happy. And I must say, I think I would be content with that as well!Love, Dianna
